AFTER placing a “Car for Sale” advertisement in a newspaper, I received a call on April 30 from a “doctor” from Ipoh who claimed he was interested in my car. 

We met at a hotel in Petaling Jaya where he inspected the car and, after a test drive, agreed to buy it at RM170,000. We then travelled to my house so that he could verify the registration documents were in order and that there was no loan outstanding for the car.
